My primary care PA wants me to, at least, get the pneumonia vaccine. I said no more shots for me thank you.
I should tell you something funny for Thanksgiving.
I was in Washington state then. After Thanksgiving, I felt like a blimp so I started an exercise program (it was video at the time). I am not sure if you have heard of Tai Bo? You have to do a lot of crunches.
Two days later, my stomach was in pain and so I called the nurse line that evening. After they did all the assessment, the nurse said, "You need to go into the ER at whatever hospital to be checked out."
I remember saying, "No, I am better now. I am not going." It was so funny. I think it was just a combination of Tai Bo and eating too much turkey.
Howls.
That is a good story! And yes, I remember Tai Bo. I also remember as a youngster these old guys I would meet at work, etc., saying if anything ever happened to them, do NOT take them to the hospital. I would ask why, and their answer would be, "If you go to the hospital, you won't leave alive."
And now I understand.
The old guys know. Smart.
